    Default Cadman & Sons Razor quality?

    Hey Everybody! I just won an auction online for a Cadman & Sons Bengall razor, which I read was good steel. Made in Sheffield Engl. Hope so! : ) Anyway I'll be in need of someone near Orem Utah to hone it for me. Any takers?

    Yes, if it is in good condition you won't have any complaints with a Bengall. There's a razor club for them if you want to check up on some of the history and get more info (or just look at the cool examples of the type).

    Can't help you with the Utah honers off the top of my head - have you tried looking at the Classifieds Member Services section? Or done a search of members by location (Community -> Member List -> Search Members -> Advanced Search -> Utah or surrounds in the location field)?

    Good luck.

    James.

    As was stated, Bengall is a good brand. (FYI sometimes spelled with one "L" e.g. Bengal).

    Bengal's are by far the most popular straight razor you find in Australia. I've had a few over the years and still have an 8/8 in my collection. I've never had a dud. Once they're honed properly, they're really good shaving razors.
